Yeah, sure, that sounds like League's playerbase. Mostly high schoolers, as far as I can tell it.

Edit: Let me elucidate... I mean decisions are made at face value (Ahri got nerfed > stop using her as much) and aren't typically concerned with the mathematics or details concerning that (wherein she may have actually been imbalanced and needed it).

They don't tend to stop and smell the roses, as it were. I mean no ill-will by their age, I was young once too.

I've long wanted statistics on this but I haven't seen any.

I suppose I wanted the word 'teenager,' not high schooler. Teenagers still make it into post-secondary. I started college at 17.

if her winrate didnt drop and her playrated went down then was definitely a nerf.. becuase it means only the good players stuck with her...

They nerfed her auto target W and put power in her E.

The full damage from a kit rotation isn't much different after the nerfs, the power was just shifted elsewhere. The only real difference maybe her wave clear got worse but I doubt that's a relevant concern since her Q does that.

Basically ahris that can't land charms were nerfed, got frustrated, stopped playing her, but she's still strong since those who are good and land charms are still just as if not more devastating.

She did receive a net nerf though. The reduced scaling on W + R still reduces the power of her full combo even when you hit Charm.

tiny? i wouldnt say that happened so many times that i hit all my stuff and still couldnt kill a squishy target without mr (mainly adc's and no they didnt have pd or dd) they just rightclicked me after charm was over and i was ded after i desperately tried to kill them with my ult dmg (everything else was on cd and yes i hit it)

the nerfs had quite and impact idk how many kills i have missed because of them

still playing her tho

but i feel like i have to get lich bane/gun blade after nomicon because i lack dmg kek
